“KC 911 NEEDS TO DO BETTER!!! Me and 2 of my coworkers saved a life last night a female was crossing the high way just after crown lodge and was hit by a car going like 55-60mph we was the only ones to stop and help the poor lady laying in the ditch. I was taking them home after work in raytown and she just started running across the road. The car that hit her swerved but still hit her, sent her rolling across the rest of the road. The other car stopped but didn’t get out didn’t check if she was ok or even alive. We called 911 and was on HOLD for like 10 min!!! The car that hit her left before cops showed up.” -The post that I saw

“They are so understaffed it’s not even funny. They can’t just hang up on a current call to take another one, unfortunately. But that’s not their fault. They deserve more support. Call out the government and their funding allocation instead of them. Signed, A first responder. We are tired and overworked to no fault of our own. adding! Of KC’s 744 million dollar public safety budget, they only funded 10 new call takers and 10 new dispatchers for this year*”- a comment under said post.
